To make a day of it
Château de Troissy stands in Troissy (Marne), in the Grand Est region of France. The building is listed as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 12th century). No visits are on record for this building.
In Troissy, in the Marne department, a square tower survives from a 12th century fortified castle. The building is notable for its doorway with a double pointed arch, which still bears the grooves that once guided a drawbridge and a slot for the portcullis. The crenellated top recalls the site's defensive purpose, while a crypt, listed as a historic monument, remains the best preserved part of the complex.
